Hi,

I seem to remember that some time ago there was talk 
about bitfields or whatever you call them, example:

    Flags: 0x0018 (PSH, ACK)
        0... .... = Congestion Window Reduced (CWR): Not set
        .0.. .... = ECN-Echo: Not set
        ..0. .... = Urgent: Not set
        ...1 .... = Acknowledgment: Set
        .... 1... = Push: Set
        .... .0.. = Reset: Not set
        .... ..0. = Syn: Not set
        .... ...0 = Fin: Not set

Did someone implement something in the API for this kind of 
functionality, or do I really have to everythin by hand (like 
the TCP dissector does)?
